[Senator Pardek]

Both the government and the people it represents, have every right to tell you, you can't snort cocaine.

True dat - the government and the people can tell you that you cannot own a gun - all it needs to do is pass a law (one that repeals the 2nd amendment).

But would that make it right?

[Reagan Man]

This thread is about America's national drug control strategy and what FReepers think about that policy. It isn't about the second amendment right, to keep and bear arms. I'm a big supporter of my right to own firearms for protection and recreation. I'm also a law and order conservative who supports the federal governments efforts against illicit drugs. If you don't support anti-drug laws and believe the governemnt isn't acting in accordance with the Constitution, then work hard in the political arena to get those drug laws changed. I will continue to support and promote what I consider both a moral and worthwhile effort by the federal government to keep these harmful substances in question, illegal.
